Turkish Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 In going for 12 minutes when we get a corner and the camera pans to a shot of our excitable fans, focusing on the biggest mongs they can find who will no doubt be in fancy dress, wigs and facepaints and say something like "wow, look at those Sains fans, they are loving life in the premier league" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crab Lungs Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 That will be half a minute after coverage starts! shots of mongboard faves with scarves, wigs, flags, painted faces, foam hands walking towards the ground "what an experience for these sets of fans" As for after KO, I'm with you on that one.

sfc1976 Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 Yeah, definitely a shot of a middle aged man with a bit of a belly, face paint and jester hat, 'they're just going to enjoy the day out whatever the result'...etc etc. Perhaps also some reference to how much our entire squad cost relative to one of their players.

Raging Bull Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 It'll be min 5 because we're the new boys, easy targets and nailed on for relegation......remember! Wouldn't mind betting its aimed at Adkins too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericb Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 I really hope there aren't too many mongs dressed in fancy dress and facepaint since it makes us look so f.ucking small time, problem is there's a good percentage of our fans that just can't help but embarrass the club by being attention seeking dic.ks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Trubble Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 Can they cope with this type of atmosphere, they won't have been used to it and the players could have a mental breakdown:) Just look at the faces of their fans, this is what makes the Premier League! They are smiling and singing songs, I doubt they have seen days like this before. This day will live on in the memory of many of them for years to come, it's something to tell their grandchildren about. I doubt any of them would have even dared dream this last night! How dare they! How dare they! (If Saints take the lead) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 I'm in Galway today, would like to see it on TV if I can, will no doubt be extremely embarrassed watching it with Irish men who will be laughing at our fat simpletons in face paints, jester hats, tight replica shirts "enjoying life in the Premier League watching plucky Southampton".

ericb Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 In the PL we are small time...we will be one of the little clubs that will drift between not being interesting enough to mention (except when we get a stuffing from one of the big boys) or when we are mentioned it will all be "plucky little Southampton isn't it cute them being in the PL"... hell even Wigan fans will see us as an easy 3pts...... For all bar 7 years of my life we've been a top flight side, of course we're one of the relegation favourites but as a club we're a premier league side. We've been there done it. City away has been done so many times that i couldn't be bothered today - i'm not paying almost £50 for a ground i've done before, besides i preferred maine road - that's why i don't want to see our mongs treat it like a cup final. It's nothing new, so get the fu.ck over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 Does anyone actually think that we'll need to wait until the game? Build up, surely? Still, we're hardly alone in feeling like we get been jipped by the media.

dubai_phil Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 All this talk of face paint, fancy dress & sponge bob hands. I didn't think Turkish was going? Oh the one thing I do NOT expect to hear. Southampton are now amongst the top 4 wealthiest clubs in the PL. The ML legacy provided the funding for the club to build a ten year plan to compete in the CL.......... Their recruitment policy of finding the best technical youngsters and fit them into the strongest Team Ethic in English Football is ground-breaking.

Secret Site Agent Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 I've been watching Fox sport. How patronising and wrong can the Yanks get? This is our Premiership debut, we just want to get next to a Man Citeh player and swop shirts, Man City is a fortress, Lambo on the bench is a mistake, as we don't have anyone to fill in. Goiung to watch sky sports. It's still patronising, but at least it's my sort of patronising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crab Lungs Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 I thought the coverage was good. Even Gary Neville was complimentary. It was, and I can understand why the introduced the comments into the programme as it enlightens football tourists watching it. However, Geoff Shreeves is a condescending c()nt... I'm glad Adkins took the p1ss out of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectisSaint Posted 19 August, 2012 Share Posted 19 August, 2012 I'm watching on Fox and they've already said "They're probably just looking forward to swapping shirts". To be fair, getting shot of the awful red shirt isn't a bad idea ;-) It almost felt like it was an away kit today, I keep expecting us to roll out with the stripes next weekend.
